By Susan Patterson If you have ever planted a flower, a vegetable, or any grass seed in your yard, you have most likely had an unfavorable encounter with crabgrass. This vociferous weed, though seemingly harmless at first, can rapidly take over your garden or yard, creating an untended, unruly looking space. The problems associated with crabgrass are not just aesthetic, however. This weed sucks massive amounts of nutrients and water from the soil, stealing life-giving necessities from your more delicate plants to continue its unprecedented take-over. It appears in late spring, sprouting up in any area of bare soil. Since

By Dr. Mercola Okra (Hibiscus esculentus) is a unique, annual vegetable from the same family as the hollyhock. It is usually the color of fresh corn husks, has the shape of a spike and the texture of a grooved cucumber. When sliced, it may remind you of a tiny star fruit. In this short video, you’ll see how easy it is to add to your garden planting. Although technically a fruit because its seeds are inside the plant, okra is usually referred to as a vegetable that is also called “lady fingers” in reference to their shape, and …read more

By Stephanie Larken, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) It’s well documented that consuming ample vegetables and fruits can benefit physical health. In fact, consuming just three to four servings of fruits and veggies can reduce numerous health risks including the development of chronic inflammation, early death and improve heart health – particularly when eaten raw. However, a recent groundbreaking study released by the University of Leeds indicates that ingesting adequate fruits and vegetables can also significantly improve mental wellbeing. Over 40,000 participants were involved, and three waves of analytical data were collected between 2010-2017 concerning participant’s self-reported state of mental wellbeing. With

How’s this for cheeky: Syngenta recently pushed for a patent on non-GMO tomatoes. You read that right: a patent.

By Lori Alton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Heart disease, the top cause of death in the United States, claims about 610,000 lives (every year) – while a stroke can kill an additional 140,000. Solid research shows that a common (but insidious) condition can increase the risk of both a heart attack and stroke – often without any clear symptoms. The fact is: nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is increasingly recognized by researchers as a “silent” threat to cardiovascular health. NAFLD, which currently affects close to 30 million Americans, is the most common liver disorder in the United States. While many cases

And, the information was just shared in a February 6, 2019 press release from the FDA. The FDA also released a letter to healthcare providers in an attempt to raise

Regardless, the forced installation of 5G has already been happening in the U.S. and all over the world even though: Security experts say 5G and its sidekick The Internet of Things (IoT) create huge cybersecurity risks (see 1, 2). The Telecom Industry can’t say it’s safe biologically or environmentally. Many videos have already been posted online discussing 5G including this new one featuring Josh Sigurdson interviewing author, economic and telecom analyst, John Sneisen.

By Sara Middleton, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) On any given day, about 20% of the United States population consumes diet soda. And, to be perfectly blunt, this is a serious problem – especially for postmenopausal women, as you’re soon see. While these soft drinks are heavily marketed as a ‘healthier alternative’ to their sugar-filled counterparts, increasing amounts of scientific data indicate that diet sodas – filled with artificial sweetener and other unpronounceable chemicals – increase the risk for health problems ranging from heart disease to depression. Now, in a new paper published by the American Heart Association’s peer-reviewed journal Stroke, a

By Lisa Egan We often hear that we should walk 10,000 steps a day for good health and for weight loss. But where did that recommendation originate? You may be surprised to learn how that guideline became so popular. It wasn’t based on research – it was created as a promotion by a pedometer company in Japan in the 1960s. The idea became more widespread as walking clubs adopted it as a goal. That being said – it isn’t a bad goal to work toward. Any physical activity is beneficial, and the more steps you get in each day, the

By Stephanie Larken, staff writer (NaturalHealth365) Previous studies have supported that an organic diet has the potential to reduce pesticides in the body through evaluating urinary pesticide metabolite excretion. Until recently, such research has predominantly focused on organophosphate pesticides. However, a new study published in Environmental Research seeks to change that trend. Specifically, the presence of pyrethroids and neonicotinoids have been previously overlooked, and the use of these compounds are rapidly on the rise today – specifically in pesticides. This particular study titled, Organic Diet Intervention Significantly Reduces Urinary Pesticide Levels in U.S. Children and Adults, examined the urine of

Those afflicted with either condition who adopted a gluten-free diet often reported a resurgence of health and well-being. Today, gluten-free eating continues to attract attention, and there are likely more wheat-tolerant people eating gluten-free food than those who medically need it. Eating trends aside, here’s what you need to know about gluten. What Is Gluten? Gluten is a protein found in wheat and cereal grains that is made up of glutenin and gliadin molecules.

Curtis Scaparrotti, the NATO Supreme Allied Commander-Europe, argued that the US needs to send even more troops and warships to Europe to “stay ahead of Russia.” Even though Russia’s military spending is actually scheduled to decrease in the next few years, Gen. Scaparrotti argued that the “growing” Russian threat justified even more US spending on Europe. This has, of course, been a common argument for Pentagon officials, and is why the US has such a massive number
